New Valve Cover from 1AAuto.com https://trq.video/ia-1AEVC00043
This video shows you how to install a new valve cover gasket in your 2011-2015 Chevy Cruze. Under the valve cover, you have camshafts and the valvetrain spinning and flinging oil everywhere. A valve cover has to have a gasket to stop some of that oil from leaking out the seam. When you do see oil around your valve cover, you know it’s time to replace the gasket.
This repair was done on a 2013 Chevrolet Cruze LT 1.4L Sedan 4-Door FWD and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2011 Chevrolet Cruze
2012 Chevrolet Cruze
2013 Chevrolet Cruze
2014 Chevrolet Cruze
2015 Chevrolet Cruze
Tools you will need:
• Pocket Screwdriver

You got my respect! And now I started to follow you , because of this very informative video.
Thank you
This will be the third time I am replacing this damn valve cover. I do it myself lol
Very good if not great video I'm sure it helped a lot of ppl who wants to turn a few wrenches. Some ppl will find anything to complain about unfortunately..keep the vids coming
Most mechanics are such POS human beings! The past is $100-$150. The work takes 20-35 mins. They charge $1400 for this!!! I think you have to be a POS human being in order to qualify to work as a mechanic.
I love TRQ , and 1A Auto , I try to buy TRQ Parts on every job because of the excellent tech support, and the quality
Bought a torque and the shit doesn't click 🙁
Is the rtv important?!
Perfect ✅ I went to mechanic asking 375 dollars
Best video for Cruze manifold gasket change out!
Does this leak cause the check traction/stability control issue?
Why did you replaced the valve cover was it because it was leaking oil or because of the PSV valve? thanks
With RTV being used, do you have to wait 24 hrs for it to cure or can you drive it right after ?
